Re: HB Blades or Stephon Heyer?

I know Jansen struggled last year, but i wouldn't be so quick to say he is done. Last season he was coming off a pretty severe injury, in which it takes some time to get back to your quickness and that seems to be what was killing him last year. He was still a pretty damn good run blocker, but just wore down towards the end of the year, just as did everyone else. I am going on the record as saying Jansen will be better this year than last. He has had an entire off season to get back into good shape not having to go through any procedures with the knife, and I really think he can still be our starting RT. I think that he will also have all the motivation with everyone saying he is done. This guy has been a rock at RT for a number of years and when healthy is pretty damn good. And he's BUGES guy, so dont quit on him yet.

Yeah I'm holding out some hope for a rebound year by JJ too. Sounds like he's taken off some weight and is in good shape, and determined to claim the RT spot. If there's one thing we can't question it's the guy's heart. He's gonna go down swinging no matter what.

It would be nice if he bounces back, but I've thought Jansen was done since '06. I've seen him get pushed back into the QB way too many times to want to see him out there again.
